1 CÓDIGO E TÍTULO DA DISCIPLINA
PGI 510063 - Leituras Orientadas em Estudos da Linguagem (Deise Caldart e Cyntia Bailer)
2 EMENTA
A disciplina Leituras Orientadas constitui estudos independentes visando aprofundar
conhecimentos na área da tese para a construção crítica do referencial teórico que servirá de
base para o projeto de pesquisa da tese de doutorado. Os resultados serão apresentados em
forma de palestra (open seminar) para alunos e professores do Programa, além da
apresentação de um capítulo/artigo.
Foco no estudo da literatura que trata dos (a) processos sintáticos relacionados à compreensão
de leitura, especialmente em L2; (b) sua relação com a memória de trabalho; (c) a questão da
atenção em atividades simultâneas; além da (d) implementação desses processos no cérebro.
(Doutoranda Cyntia Bailer)
Foco no estudo da literatura que trata (a) dos processos inferenciais envolvidos na leitura para
compreensão, (b) no papel da capacidade da memória de trabalho na geração de inferências e
na compreensão leitora, tanto em L1 como em L2. (Doutoranda Deise Cadart)
